Linux Men Women

        I managed to say, "Sorry," and no more.  I knew that he disliked
me to cry.
        This time he said, watching me, "On some occasions it is better
to weep."
        I put my head down on the table and sobbed, "If only she could come
back; I would be nice."
        Francis said, "You gave her great pleasure always."
        "Oh, not enough."
        "Nobody can give anybody enough."
        "Not ever?"
        "No, not ever.  But one must go on trying."
        "And doesn't one ever value people until they are gone?"
        "Rarely," said Francis.  I went on weeping; I saw how little I had
valued him; how little I had valued anything that was mine.

I married beneath me.  All women do.
                -- Lady Nancy Astor

I met a wonderful new man.  He's fictional, but you can't have everything.

I never expected to see the day when girls would get sunburned in the
places they do today.

I never met a woman I couldn't drink pretty.

I read Playboy for the same reason I read National Geographic.  To see
the sights I'm never going to visit.

I refuse to consign the whole male sex to the nursery.  I insist on
believing that some men are my equals.

I respect the institution of marriage.  I have always thought that every
woman should marry -- and no man.

I sat down beside her, said hello, offered to buy her a drink... and then
natural selection reared its ugly head.

I think she must have been very strictly brought up, she's so desperately
anxious to do the wrong thing correctly.
